Im just saying it would be fun to re-create history instead of doing something that already happend. If you wanna do the Knicks-Bulls rivalry why not the 1993 ECF where they were down 2-0 and came back to win the series.

I'm gonna take this a step further and break it down: Jordan vs the Knicks was probably the biggest rivalry for that time, he had more than a few spectacular performances against them and they should rightfully be showcased in the Jordan moments. Jordan vs the Blazers is another easy one. That unforgettable game where he had 30 plus in the 1st half, plus he won his 2nd championship against them. Against the Lakers, he won his 1st championship. Jordan vs the Pistons was another great rivalry in which Jordan had clutch performances and a great eastern conference playoff battle. Jordan vs the Jazz is another championship. Jordan vs Wilkins was a barrage of offense between the 2. Against the cavs he hit "the shot".... Sonics he won another championship....on and on and on.....There's a pattern happening here......These are all things that were out of the ordinary so to speak and assisted in catapulting his legacy.

Yeah there are a ton of teams that could be included. But I think the development did a great job in selecting these teams they have. Maybe there will be more in the future, but these teams are great choices.
Couldn't have said it better myself. Props to you. Magic are even more non-sense than the Pacers.

Because the 55 point game is a famous game--it's even nicknamed the "double nickel game".

The '95 Magic apparently would please a lot of people, but they just don't fit in the realm of The Jordan Challenge. If 2K keeps these historic teams, maybe they could go in 2K12.

You can re-create history in any sports video game. It's not like each team in real life has the same record that you have in your Association. Anything you do in sports video games is re-creating history.

^^^^ Game 7 of the 98 ECF: that be one wicked challenge "capitalize on Jordan's guarantee"
mid 90s magic would be a good DLC team...but not to replace the knicks, NEVER!!! But the 98 pacers challenge would be a good future addin or 2k12 challenge.....

Thanks brutha.

And to the OP.... I've seen a lot of requests for that 90's Magic team, And I understand why...Diesel and Penny, period. They had a great team. I promise you that someone on 2kshare will end up creating that team and then you will have your chance to re create history. But re creating history isn't the idea behind the Jordan Challenge. It's about REPEATING history and accomplishing the same goals which Jordan himself accomplished in the same settings.

For Magic fans who are so inlove with the 1995 playoffs...May I suggest the 1995 Finals?

I would MUCH rather have the Knicks than that Magic team. The Knicks and Bulls were somewhat arch rivals for many years and are linked much more with Michael than that Magic team.
